Everyone knows how Apple "stole" the GUI from Xerox PARC and then Microsoft "stole" it from Apple. Infact there is a long chain of well renowned vendors stealing each others ideas like for instance Samsung Vs Apple on the smartphone case, but the bigger question is why do even Samsung, Apple, Microsoft or any of the big vendors even have to copy/steal ideas from each other or from a new entrepreneur ?
There could be numerous reasons for stealing the ideas but some are discussed following, founder of Apple Inc. Steve Jobs used to believe in Picasso's saying: 'good artists copy, great artists steal’.
Large Companies steals others ideas because sometimes they lack creativity of ideas & lack the aptitude to dream and act on their own dreams. It is much easier to copy an idea and work on it by punching the tagline of their own company. It actually benifits them to create a new product or they can make a fame of themselves by launching that particular product by their very own name.
